Displaced mouse throu vboxwebsvr

[Scott Grim]

Trying to control virtualbox programatically some unexpected behaviour occoure. The mouse is displaced. I call putMouseEventAbsolute and then putMouseEvent
but the position of the mouse is wrong. By this forum I am not allowed to reference the handbook here.

I am using virtualbox 7.0.6 r155176 (Qt 5.15.8)

Moved to "Virtualbox API" for the deep gurus to ponder.

The standalone code is:

Code: Select all

VirtualBoxManager manager = VirtualBoxManager.createInstance(null);

private IVirtualBox connect() throws IOException, FileNotFoundException {
    manager.connect("http://localhost:18083", "user", "pass");
    return manager.getVBox();
}

public void testMousePos() throws Exception {
    IVirtualBox box = connect();
    for (IMachine machine : box.getMachines()) {
        if (machine.getState() == MachineState.Running) {
            ISession session = manager.getSessionObject();
            machine.lockMachine(session, LockType.Shared);
            try {

                IMouse mouse = console.getMouse();
                mouse.putMouseEventAbsolute(200, 200, 0, 0, 0x00);

Sorry the requirements point out that: "Make sure your code is readable/documented" and can run without dependencies is not possible. I will not place the JDK in here because the JDK is pretty huge, please download the jdk by yourself instead.

It is very hard to meet the posting guidelines. I posted more informations elsewhere but am not allowed to tell where.
